Why cancel a flashing process?

Never ran into such situation but read here on forum that this can be due to bad download (md5sum) or even broken HW.

True.
First case is easy to solve. Just check md5sum on mrcrab.net (or let us know about exact file name).
In second case I am sorry to say does not look good.

Iirc I already provided the cold flash trick (add parameter -c) and that did not work out. Same about zeroizing.
So let's hope for first case..

i suddenly realized that i were flashing the wrong kernel and in a moment of panic i SIGTERM-ed the process.

anyway, fixing was easy:
i rebooted and powered off the device, then i reflashed. it works now

(the firmware and emmc files were the right ones, i've used them a lot of times, and the md5sum is fine. it was my fault because i shouldn't have stopped the flash)
